LYRICS: M. Carey
MUSIC: J. Dupri, M. Carey, M. Seal
Once upon a time
You whispered softly in my ear
Loving words and fairytales
That I longed to hear
I gave you my body and soul
And you took control
As you slowly swept me up
And carried me away
You told me pretty lies
As I held onto you tight
You knew how to get your way
Ignorance was bliss in your warm embrace
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday
Every now and then
I drown in thoughts of yesterday
And the fools' paradise that you blew away
I feel you beside me again
And remember when you came to my window
On a dark and stormy day
Baby, I need you now
Tonight I'm crumbling down
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
(So long ago)
Baby, I need you now
'Cause tonight I'm crumbling down
Sinking in the memories
Shadows of you keep washing over me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
And take me back to yesterday
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away
But you still haunt me
Long ago
You used to want me
Now it's all so far away

Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really here
It's just the radio
(*) Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby
You said you'd be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you I really do
Loneliness is a such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say to make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar
Repeat (*) twice

(Rossi/Frost)
So let's begin at the beginning
And make it nice, so very nice
Did you ever have another
Who didn't think the way you think?
You'd better hold on a minute, wait for a minute
Don't leave me on my knees
If I recover and then discover
It's all a game, it's just the same
Are you believing that I am leaving
You're very wrong - so very wrong
I'm gonna wait for a minute, hold on a minute
Back down I'm on my knees
I don't want any more to be left all by myself
In a world, crazy world, full of tears and broken dreams
I can't go on forever living my life with you in mind
I don't know, I just don't know
Long, long ago
Where did it go?
Can't go back, no
Oh no, no, no
You'll have to learn if I return
It's gonna be the way to be
If you believe you wanna leave
Take my advice and don't think twice
You'd better run for your cover, run for your lover
I won't be on my knees
I don't want any more to be left all by myself
In a world, crazy world, full of tears and broken dreams
I can't go on forever living my life with you in mind
I can't say, I just can't say
Long, long ago
Where did it go?
Can't go back, no
Oh no, no, no
So lets begin at the beginning
Did you ever have another
So lets begin at the beginning
Did you ever have another

It all seemed so long ago
Young and happy don't you know
Down by the creek I would show
Fireflies to that girl
But that was back when he was nice
Before my warm heart turned to ice
My sister's wig once had lice
But that was long ago
The schoolyard's where we were
The first time I kissed her
He thought he got some tongue
But it was only retainer
Eleanore's bra is a trainer
Well, over there?s my family home
And the woods we used to roam
The only time I had sex was on the phone
But that was long ago
I carved our names upon that tree
I loved him and he loved me
My darling wife was once a he
But that was long ago
He'd always whisper in my ear
But then I started drinkin' beer
My jewels got licked by six frisky deer
Now he's just a loner and a lier

Can we get back to the basics?
Back where we came from?
When we didn't have no worries
We were basking in the sun
Sometimes the least of my problems feel like the biggest ones
When you said that you were leaving, felt like we had just begun
It would be so easy
Oh, if it was that easy
I can't sleep tonight
So tell me one more time
When I dream, it will be you that's on my mind
It's my heart you hold, so never let it go
I still love you like I loved you long ago
Saw you out on the freeway, and later at the show
It could be my imagination, but I know I'm not alone
All the lights in the city are burning out with time
But there's a light that hangs above, and it's keeping us in line
All this time that's running by won't stop until we stand still
'Cause we are incomplete until we finally breathe
Let's take a look at the future
See where we left off
I'm so grateful that I found you

Narrator:
Long ago, in the far away land of ancient Greece
there was a golden age of powerful gods extraordinary heroes
and greatest and strongest of all these Heroes was the mighty Hercules.
But what is the measure of a true hero? Now, that is what our story ...
Muses:
Will you listen to him?
He's making the story sound like some Greek tragedy.
Lighten up, dude.
We'll take it from here, darling.
Narrator:
You go, girls ...
Muses:
We are the muses.
Goddesses of the arts
and proclaimers of heroes.
Heroes like Hercules.
Honey, you mean Hunkules!
I'd like to make some sweet music of it
Our story actually begins long before Hercules

Long ago and far away, I dreamed a dream one day
And now that dream is here beside me
Long the skies were overcast but now the clouds have passed
You're here at last
Chills run up and down my spine, Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was not denied me
Just one look and then I knew
That all I longed for long ago was you
Chills run up and down my spine, Aladdin's lamp is mine
The dream I dreamed was not denied me
Just one look and then I knew

Greg: "Here's a song called 'Long Ago'
and we'd love it if you sang along.
The chorus is easy, it just goes,
'long, long ago, long, long ago, long, long ago."
Long long ago has my true love has gone now,
Long long ago has he left me alone,
And longer still I'll be waiting apon him,
my eyes they are dried now, my heart it is a stone.
Well I remember the day that he left
With the fine clothes he dawned and the hat on his head
Kindly he caressed me then he turned and he left me
And well I remember the words that he said.
(Chorus:) Long, long ago.
I'll come again when the nights they are dreary
And the days they are short and the wind it is cold
Where is he now is the thought that torments me
Who is it now that he comforts and beholds?
Oh come back again oh come back to your true love,
'Tis the dream that I have that you'll walk by my side.
We'll wander the valleys so lovely and green.
But my heart it is broken and surely I must die.
(Chorus)
And when I am dead and the tall grass grows over me
Be it white with the frost, be it damp with the dew,
Little I will care and small will be my sorrow
When I close my eyes and I dream no more of you.

Long ago before the world had cooled
The moon flew out of the earth
Long ago before the world had cooled
The moon flew out of the earth
Eons it spun 'round the earth and the sun
Until it was perfectly round
And I have been waiting an hour now
For a bus on the outskirts of town
Long ago before the world had cooled
The moon flew out of the earth
Long ago before the world had cooled
The moon flew out of the earth
Maybe this bus doesn't run anymore
Or maybe the schedule is wrong
Walking is out of the question from here
It's raining and my youth is gone
Long ago before the world had cooled
The moon flew out of the earth
Long ago before the world had cooled

Long ago we were boys in the ranks, comrades,
Our hearts lying happy as the day.
Cheeks were ruddy, eyes were bright, locks were dark,
comrades,
As we marched from our homes far away.
Chorus:
But now we are aged and gray, comrades,
Trials of life are nearly done.
But to us life's as dear as it was, comrades,
When you and I were young.
Long ago we were marching away, comrades,
Our flags to the breeze gaily flung.
Our bosoms were bare to the full, comrades,
When you and I were young.
Chorus:
But now we are aged and gray, comrades,
Trials of life are nearly done.
But to us life's as dear as it was, comrades,
When you and I were young.
Long ago we were camping in storms, comrades,
Our courage and muscles tightly strung.
But no army could drive us away, comrades,
When you and I were young.
Chorus:
But now we are aged and gray, comrades,
Trials of life are nearly done.
But to us life's as dear as it was, comrades,
When you and I were young.
Long ago we were falling fast, comrades,
Our ranks daily much thinner grew.
Our courage the cause could not win, comrades,
When the men in the ranks were so few.
Chorus:
But now we are aged and gray, comrades,
Trials of life are nearly done.
But to us life's as dear as it was, comrades,
When you and I were young.
Staggering and bleeding alone, comrades,
Outnumbered three to one everywhere.
The world coldly watching our fates, comrades,
With not even a sigh or a tear.
Chorus:
But now we are aged and gray, comrades,
Trials of life are nearly done.
But to us life's as dear as it was, comrades,
When you and I were young.
As fall heroes struggling for their homes, comrades,
So fell the soldiers in gray.
Their honor yet unsullied, comrades,
For that which ennobles brave men.
Though now we are aged and gray, comrades,
And trials of life are nearly done.
To us life's as dear as it was, comrades,
